That's indeed the case: my default paper size is A4, and as a result  
I have no pdftexconfig.tex in texmf.local. There's one inside  
texmf.gwtex and containing:

     % Set pdfTeX parameters for pdf mode (replacing pdftex.cfg file).
     % Thomas Esser, 2004. public domain.
     \pdfoutput=1
     \pdfcompresslevel=9
     \pdfdecimaldigits=3
     \pdfpagewidth=210 true mm
     \pdfpageheight=297 true mm
     \pdfhorigin=1 true in
     \pdfvorigin=1 true in
     \pdfpkresolution=600
     \pdfoptionpdfminorversion=4
     \endinput

and the other inside texmf.tex and containing:

     % Set pdfTeX parameters for pdf mode (replacing pdftex.cfg file).
     % Thomas Esser, 2004. public domain.
     \pdfoutput=1
     \pdfpagewidth=210 true mm
     \pdfpageheight=297 true mm
     \pdfpkresolution=600
     \endinput

The first one is read and creates the problem.
